Hey all you freebie lovers, here’s an opportunity to win an iPhone app. The first BittBox iPhone app contest, but it’s design related so I thought BittBoxers would like it! PrintProof is a simple checklist app geared towards junior designers as a helpful tool to remind you what to check before preparing a document for print. Or as you prepare a document for print, rather. I wish I had this app at my first job, but the iPhone didn’t exist back then… I have 3 copies to give away, YAY! Be sure to read the rules, and good luck :)
Neil Duerden, one of my favorite Illustrator/Designers gave me the heads up this afternoon about an update to his portfolio. Among the updates are over 50 new pieces to enjoy. If you’ve never had the pleasure of enjoying Neil’s work, you’ve got quite a bit to look at over at his site, NeilDuerden.co.uk. The newer stuff is in the 2009 folder, enjoy!
I’d like to let all of my readers know about a new contest with $1000 in prizes up for grabs. Caleb from LostAndTaken has launched his first contest, and yours truly will be the judging the project. There are prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, and the theme is none other than the 2008 election. Submit your political poster designs to enter. Head on over to check out the details and the prizes. This should be a fun contest, good luck!
I’ve been making high quality freebies here at BittBox for a little over a year and a half (19 Months). There are 94 posts in my Freebies section, and I thought I’d make a list for people to see all of my stuff in one place. I know how people love lists, so I’m making some of my own. These aren’t all of my freebies, just the cream of the crop. We’ll Kick the series off with my High Resolution Photoshop Brushes. Happy Downloading, here we go :D

I am happy to announce BittBox’s first set of Photoshop Brushes (Free). I’m constantly going back and forth between Illustrator and Photoshop in my projects, and I’m starting to pretty much make everything from scratch. I often have trouble finding brushes…
I’ve needed to re-design the Box for a while now and I finally buckled down and got it done. It’s not perfect by any means, but I think it’s a huge improvement from V3. I still have some work to do, but I was happy enough with the theme to go live. I’ve had a few problems with the comment form, which I plan on fixing, as well as a new “About page” and a few other additions that you might notice in the near future. More after the jump.
It’s been over a year since the first edition of this post, and since it was by far the most popular BittBox post ever (and also the most ripped off), I thought it was due time for another. So I thought I’d lighten things up a bit and, back by popular demand….25 MORE reasons You Might Be A Hardcore Graphic/Web Designer. These are in no particular order but I gave them numbers so you all could reference them in the comments if you like. OK, here we go..

You’ve had a client that thought they knew more about design than you.
I stumbled onto a ‘Design Resources Search Engine‘ the other day somehow, and wanted to tell everyone about it. It’s basically a Custom Google Search Engine that only searches the best design blogs and sites out there, but it is quite handy if you like to find freebies, as I know a lot of you all do. Jump on over and give it a try. you might just find what you’re looking for. Also, if you look at the complete list of sites and you know of a good site to add to the list, you can suggest a site. Just click on the blog link at the bottom of the page and use the contact form in the footer.
